Cumulative effects of H+ and Pi on force and power of skeletal muscle fibres from young and older adults physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/JP…

About time.

Is medial gastrocnemius function ­­regained – relatively – in everyday low-force activities after Achilles tendon rupture? #Achillestendon #rupture Most likely! doi.org/10.1016/j.jele…

Another piece to the puzzle. In this paper, we show how muscle-tendon unit decoupling can contribute to the SSC effect. Collaborative work by Denis Holzer (TU München), Wolfgang Seiberl, and Tobias Siebert (Uni Stuttgart) Funded by DFG public | @[email protected] OA: doi.org/10.14814/phy2.…

Muscle power—your ability to generate force quickly—is one of the strongest predictors of longevity, even more so than being lean. This is sometimes referred to as the 'fat but powerful' paradox. In a recent study, older adults with normal and high levels of relative muscle

Registration open for Muscle-tendon mechanics satellite meeting in Helsinki. Now that's a proper warm up for ISB2025!!

Great overview and future perspectives from Ra'ad Khair on Achilles complex. Looking forward for new research on the topic

What an awesome turnout for my keynote at the Sportkonges conference in Copenhagen . Honored for the invitation to speak 💪🏽

What a great experience to talk about the Achilles tendon structure at the Sportkonges conference in Copenhagen. Honored for the invitation.

Perhaps we should move to Biomech-omics instead of posters! Great work Christopher Long

Nutrition for optimising recovery from injury in sports 🩼 This new review outlined the specific nutritional strategies that should be practiced and considered in the events of sports injuries 🔍 Here are the key recommendations ⬇️ ENERGY INTAKE 🔥 📈 Daily target = BMR x

Final PhD study is out 🦶 Slow, high-load eccentric calf training leads to the greatest acute Achilles tendon thinning (↓8.9%) & stiffening (↑54.5%)—suggesting more fluid exudation & lower intratendinous pressure. 🏋️ Loading speed & intensity matter! 🔗 journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/abst…

Not work related but very important to me: My pal Sam Gilbert is fighting Stage IV cancer with everything he’s got. I’m running a half marathon to support him, but we need your help. Please donate if you can and share his story: gofundme.com/f/raising-fund…
